Concept-Based Mathematics Prek-12

About this workshop


This workshop will cover the concept based curriculum design model specifically for mathematics. All content will be based on Dr Jennifer Chang Wathall's book "Concept Based Mathematics; Teaching for Deep Understanding in Secondary Schools" and everyone will be required to have a copy as this is the workbook for the workshop. Many early years and primary examples will be provided during the workshop. The book itself is 90% for grades Pre-K-12.


Here are our guiding questions: 

Why is it important for students to learn conceptually? 

What are the facts, processes and concepts in mathematics? 

How do I craft generalizations in mathematics? How do I craft quality guiding questions?
